  I started with 1 guy I was then enslaved promptly Being enslaved wasn't so bad, you get food and health benefits Spent 1 week in game training strength, atheletics, and laboring by day Lockpick, thievery, and stealth under masters noses by night Tried to train assassination 1 night, which promptly turned into training dodge, melee attack/defense and martial arts I ended up surrounded by many slavers and went down Health benefits kicked in and they patched me up, put me back in the cage Repeat process until I am literally an enslaved god Release myself effortlessly from my cage and proceed to beat down entire force of slavers with bare hands, release any slaves I find along the way, who assist me in beating down previously mentioned slavers I escaped and many slaves joined my band outright, all of whom had good stats from being enslaved themselves so long Beat down Holy Nation 30 days later with band of angry ex-slave martial artists 10/10 would be a slave again

  Kenshi is a game where you start off feeling small, incapable, and alone. From the get go, you are basically a nobody; just another face in the crowd, another cog in the machine, another meatbag for the grinder - but it's not what you are, but what you would rather be, and how you get there that makes this game enjoyable. The journey to the ultimate destination of your own choosing is where the fun lies. Will you be a lone trader, looking to accrue the greatest mountain of wealth the post apocalyptic world has ever seen? Or a wandering swordsman who hides their true strength to dispatch armies with relative ease? Perhaps a general at the head of your own personal body guard? Or the mayor of a little tiny village just beyond the next dune? Regardless of what your goal is, it is exactly that - yours. When I started playing Kenshi, the one thing that first struck me was the graphics. Relatively blocky, and a bit funny to look at in some cases, i.e.: buildings clipping in a sand dune, or walls built at unreasonable angles. But, I don't play a game for graphics; to me that's just a secondary benefit. What I'm after is the gameplay, and what I was in store for really put a smile on my face. My character started out in a small town on top of a mountain range. I could see another down off in the distance, and figured that I'd walk there after exploring this little fortress in the sky. Did I mention that the towns are more like fortresses? I didn't? Well, imagine a town surrounded by walls taller that the highest in-game building, with a group of 20 or so very heavily armed and skilled guards for it's protection. That's what constitutes a town in Kenshi. 'Relative' safety, but I'll get to that in a minute. Heading towards the other town, I noticed that a group of bandits had started charging up the hill at me. I thought, "A group of bandits? Looks like fun, let's try out the combat!" and to my astonishment, I was obliterated. Beaten to within an inch of death, bleeding out in the beating sun, unconscious. My stomach had taken massive damage, and one of my arms was pretty much useless. I had been surrounded, beaten up, and left for dead. And my assailants? Took off to raid the town. Luckily, the city guard switfly dispatched them, but I was left on the hill. So, fast forward about half an in-game day, and I limp back to town (of course, I looted those bandits that attacked me and left them for dead; take that!). After patching myself up sufficiently, I take to luring bandits to town to enjoy the fighting with the guards and levelling myself up. Now, speaking of levelling up, skills are sorted into multiple sections: dexterity, strength, the various weapon skills, just to name a few. You gain proficiency by performing the tasks. You get stronger by carrying heavy objects around, not by killing a few rats like some other games, but not like there's anything wrong with them. You develop your character through hard work and dedication. Want to become better at running? Take off your heavy equipment and do a few laps. Don't know how to swing your weapon? Engage a training dummy or another person for all that matters. Even your ability to widthstand pain can be increased. How? By losing. That's right, you are rewarded for losing. Those bandits didn't kill you when they had the chance? Sucks to be them, because now not only are you angry, but you're also more accustomed to the pain. The next time you see them, they may well be on the losing side of the fighting. Kenshi rewards you for survival and practice, much like the saying: whatever doesn't kill you only makes you stronger. So back to my little tale to attempt to capture the game a bit more - After fighting a couple of fights with the city guard as backup, I tried luring a group of bandits back to the town only to my surprise - the guards at the gate weren't there. Either they left on a patrol, or were fighting another battle elsewhere, I had no time to check. The bandits were hot on my tail, and the only chance I had of survival was to either lead them away from town, or take refuge and hope to escape while they killed all the civilians. And in that moment, I saw a few brave men - shop guards - rush from the protection of their walls, and stop the bandits in their tracks. A bandit or two slipped by, and I gave chase. Unfortunately while I spent a good while fighting one, the other slayed an innocent civilian, and I was happy to see that the population count in the town had actually dropped. Protecting the towns actually has an incentive - no population = no trading. The bandits dispatched, the guards returned, and I resigned to head off towards that other town in the distance. Now, as I could see the town, it didn't seem far. Plus, I had enough gold to recruit a new person to my little gang of righteous corpse theives. With some new equipment, a little bit of extra knowledge of how the world works and a new companion, I set out for the town. I travelled for at least two in game days. Two. I saw the sun rise, and set, then rise and set again. Such is the scale of Kenshi - the world is an open sandbox (quite literally at this point - no grass, just sand and rocks), and things that look far off in the distance are far off. And as I mentioned before, zooming out - I became a speck in the desert. The only that that kept my position known was the damn name tag floating above my head. Kenshi may not be a game for everybody, but if you enjoy a bit of realism, and quite a bit of freedom, it may be worth it. It's still early access, which means that there are quite a lot of glitches, issues, bugs and crashes (I haven't encountered anything severe however), you may want to pass the game until it's more stable and developed decendant comes about. What appeals to me the most is actually two things: one, you are rewarded for winning, and are rewarded for trying. So long as you aren't dead, the game isn't over. It makes for one heck of a story if you keep little notes about what happens to your character when you play. The second thing is the scale and immersion of the game. Beyond the glitches sometimes breaking the immersion, I actually felt like a lone survivor in a desolate world, where people preyed upon the weak, and civilization may take days to reach on foot. Since I just recently bought the game, I can't say much about the developer, except that from reading what their vision is, it really is a grand one and has a lot of potential. Kenshi has lots of potential, but it also has lots of work left to be done. So pass it if you're looking for a more fleshed out game, but definitely get it if anything in this review has a major appeal to you. As for me, I'll be wandering the desert with my small group of companions trying to make a living in a world where death can come from even a small group of ill-trained, ill-equipped people. Afterall, you may know how to fight, but if a knife cuts you, you'll still bleed.

  Chose the "Cannibal" start. Was imprisoned for dinner, then broken free by a rival gang of cannibals that went to war over me as food. Escaped a handful of times only to be recaptured, then used a fellow entrée prisoner as bait to make my final escape. Crawled away super injured, made it out safely, and wandered into a Shrieking Forest where bands of naked screaming bandits would run all over but never really attacked me so long as I said I didn't understand them. Then ended up in a foggy land where I got captured again by these brainless but zealous alien people, tied to a pole, and had my legs eaten off by their Prince while the rest of the congestion prostrated and worshipped the ritual. Screaming bandits from earlier showed up, distracted the fogmen, and I escaped again, now crawling away with blood spewing from where my legs used to be. Made it to a local town that didn’t want to eat or kill me, passed out from blood loss, got revived by one of the townsfolk, and their “mechanic” gave me new legs (literally 2 metal poles jammed in my stumps). I left and went out to make a name for myself. 10/10, incredible game, highly recommend.

  I had to uninstall this game before each semester so I didn't fail.

  I've played for a few hours now, I suppose it's fair to give Kenshi a review. My first impression of Kenshi when I loaded it up was: "What the hell have I just bought? Ugh, the camera is so clunky and awkward, and the graphics are a bit grim. . . Oh my guy is dead. . . " I gave Kenshi another chance. I got used to the controls, and started to play as a 3rd person thievery rpg. And the rest of the day disappeared, as I became invested in improving my character's thieving skills, and prowled different towns for loot to amass wealth. I had so much stuff I needed to hire help to carry it, recruiting some randoms at a tavern. I even got lucky and bumped into some nomads selling pack animals. I became a trader, selling stolen loot from one town to another. I became rich, and with an entourage of followers I decided to start a colony. I found a lush fertile plain with rivers flowing through it. I decided this was the place. With the rivers acting as a natural defence, I built an apocalyptic looking motte-and-bailey. Unfortunately the land belonged to slaving, holy zealots, who hate women, and anything that could be considered a 'xeno.' A horde of armoured paladins and zealots attacked, leaving me no choice but to abandon my home, losing some followers and precious belongings. Thus, back to trading, this time with a motive. Revenge. Amassed more wealth. Recruited more followers. Geared them up. Went back home to find the holy (insert choice profanities here) had left. Revived the colony. Focused on defences, big walls, manned turrets, only way in or out was to swim the moat. Sent Beep to buy supplies. Beep got captured by cannibals. Beep died. Next time the paladins attacked, I slaughtered them. And of course, looted them! Many hours passed as I built an army, and invaded the Holy Nation. After countless victories and defeats, my people grew stronger and I eventually captured the Holy Nations leaders. I sold them into slavery (after removing their arms and legs), and made allies of the other nations who hated them. Now I have a self sustaining colony of farmers, miners, and skilled craftsmen who make everyone's gear. A squad of semi robotic ninjas. And an army of heavily armoured samurai, accompanied by an entourage of war beasts. In conclusion: I realise I've played Kenshi as an RPG, an RTS, an open world survival sandbox, an economic colony sim, a trader sim, and as a story driven adventure. I've barely explored the map, and met but a few of the game's colourful characters. With such a devoted modding community, there's always something new to add to the game. You can add cosmetics, alter game mechanics, add new monsters, characters, items, or just completely revamp the game in its entirety. At near 200 hours I realise I still have plenty to do in Kenshi. And I know I'll put another 200 hours into it. Though be warned, this is not an easy game initially. You will lose, often. But your characters that survive will be stronger for it. If you want to chill, and approach Kenshi with a laid back manner, you'll likely enjoy.

  This game is not for the faint of heart. It's hard as hell, frequently counter-intuitive, a little buggy, and it is often truly ridiculous. During my first major base build, I underestimated the amount of resources I would need to fully construct my defenses. I had built a long oval of defensive walls with rock mines and material crafting elements on one side with an open half on the other side of the "oval". There were not enough materials to create a gate or finish the walls as I had used the remaining materials to build a small building for housing and storing resources near the open half. After the first few days, a group of bandits showed up demanding tribute. Instead of talking to them, I had my boys sit on the other side of the base in stealth mode behind the rock mines. The bandits charged into the base and took up residence in my small storage building. Meanwhile, I kept mining while trying to plot a way to remove them, but I couldn't think on it long before a second group of bandits showed up. The same thing happened. I kept my worker bees in stealth while this second group plunged into the storage shed. Nothing happened. All quiet. Now, I'm really in a pickle now. Small bandit groups aren't that tough, but my workers were laborers with mediocre weapons and armor. Not much good in a serious fight, and there were two separate groups of sweaty desert bandits standing shoulder to shoulder in my storage building. There must have been several dozen of them at least. I'm about to run to the nearest fishing town to hire some mercenaries when the third group shows up. These new guys are rude and hella nude. They're also hungry as hell for human flesh, and there had to be around 50 of them. The cannibals stood at the open half of the base for a hot minute before they too plunged into the storage building. It was absolute pandemonium. The bandits are screaming, the cannibals are yelling, and there's blood everywhere. Earlier, I had my boys build some internal walls with crossbows on them, and we're sniping the all out brawl that's occurring. The moment one of the bandits goes down a cannibal will scoop him up and take him to some far away dinner table. It's like a self cleaning mess. After about 30 minutes, nothing and no one remains except for some bodies, arms, legs, and a massive amount of blood. The cannibals aren't even interested in eating my guys, and the few remaining bandits are simply hobbling away. I then built the remainder of the base so that the front gate was partially submerged in the ocean. Any would be hostiles would have to swim to it in full armor just to knock, and this never happened again. God help me, I can't stop playing this stupid shit.

  I remember when I first got this game, back in summer of '13. I had started out with nothing but the clothes on my back, some cash, and a rusty sword. First thing to do was to find some buddies to help, and so I went to the nearest town. In a tavern I met a short bald man (though we were all bald back then). His name was Dirt, and this was my new best friend. Dirt and I did some pretty bad things then, luring guards to get killed by starving bandits, and then stealing all of the gear. This changed when we both got a little close one fight, and got chased by bandits all the way into the entrance of town. There weren't enough men to hold them all back, so I went into a tavern to see if anyone could help. I found a huge man, named Vedi. Vedi was willing to help for a price, and after paying him he went out there with a rusty sword and killed 3 of the bandits before he passed out from blood loss, effectively saving the town. It was the three of us for a good, long time. We killed many a cannibal and a bandit, and soon enough came upon the idea to make our own outpost, a safe haven to keep us secure and resupply when the going got tough. There was a town nearby, so all we had to do was get a few materials here and there and after a week maybe it would be set. By this time all three of us were pretty decked out, myself having a good long coat, Vedi with a huge cleaver, and Dirt with a tricorn hat. Most cannibals were either afraid of us by this point, or dead, there wasn't much worry of our safety by now. We had almost finished the small base, with Vedi and I working on some some construction, so it was Dirt's turn to go get the materials. We had both finished our construction, and so had waited for Dirt to come back. A day had gone by, we were starting to get worried. By noon the next day, Vedi and I had decided to risk it and leave the base, to go see where Dirt had gone. The next town over must surely know where he went? We didn't even make it halfway across when we found him, laying on the ground. His hat and sword weren't far from him, and there were two dead bandits next to him. Incisions and cuts were all across his body, bones broken and blood everywhere. Vedi cried, I stared for a good long time, before getting his hat and sword. I walked to the nearest bandit encampment, which some members looked wounded, and slaughtered them all with Vedi, after he finally caught up. Time has passed since that day, and the small base we had thought of originally is now a bustling town, with nearly eight residents there, all dressed and ready to defend their home. These people are the best I could have asked for, and I still keep the tricorn hat as a symbol of office, with Vedi forgoeing his cleaver for that sword, as his symbol of guard captain. But as much as I love these people, and would die for them, they will never be that man whom Vedi and I came to know as our best friend. R.I.P. Dirt. 10/10
